      On a Sunday you can go to the cinema, theatre, concerts, bars, restaurants, cafes after 6pm. With longer daylight hours in the summer, walks around the local parks can still be done after 6pm. Pulling your plums in public is still an illegal offence for Belfast, so best keep that contained to the hotel room 😂
